Arthur Benjamin
(Australian pianist)
The basis of Arthur Benjamin's Concertino is jazz, which he has endeavoured to put to artistic uses, particularly with regard to the widening of the possibilities of combining syncopated rhythms. It is scored for an ordinary small orchestra, with the addition of an alto saxophone in E flat. There are four sections: a rhythmic Allegro ; an Andante with the sub-title, ' quasi Blues ' ; a Scherzo and Trio; and an Allegro like the beginning ; but these four really form one movement between them.
